Is it possible to program apps for Smartphones/PDAs running Windows Mobile 5 OS using Visual Studio 2003 or do I need the Visual Studio 2005 version?

thanking you in advance.

Yes, you will be able to develop Mobile 5 apps with VS 2003, however - Is the device going to be running .Net CF 1.1 or 2.0? If it's running 2.0 then you will be required to use Visual Studio 2005

How do I tell what version my device is running. It is an i-Mate JasJam running windows mobile 5.0.

Well.. you can look in the system information on the device.... or you can install the 2.0 .net framework if you already have VS 2005 and just start developing, or you can create an application in VS 2003 (a hello world) and see if it runs on your device... if it does, then your running 1.1 most likely. Or you could re-install 1.1 on the device just to be sure.

How do you program? Do you just program normally and use a program? Or is there a speical way of programing?
